Leukocyte Membrane Determinants Regulating Immune Reactivity
Leukocyte Membrane Determinants Regulating Immune Reactivity is a result of the Leukocyte Culture Conference meeting held at Amsterdam in 1975. Abstracts presented in the meeting are compiled in this book. The topics of these abstracts are all under leukocyte biology and include not just lymphocytes but also monocytes, macrophages, and granulocytes. The text is composed of six major sections. The first section features abstracts that deal with ligand binding and subsequent changes in membrane. Section II focuses on the receptors on lymphocytes in the context of various subpopulations. Immune reactivity, specifically its augmentation or suppression, is the main topic of Section III. Gene products are emphasized in Section IV, while effector functions of membrane determinants are tackled in Section V. Finally, Section VI features leukocyte membrane determinants in differentiation and maturation. The book presents much detailed information that will be of great help to students or professionals in the study of biology, specifically leukocyte biology.
Jews and Genes
Well aware of Jews having once been the victims of Nazi eugenics policies, many Jews today have an ambivalent attitude toward new genetics and are understandably wary of genetic forms of identity and intervention. At the same time, the Jewish tradition is strongly committed to medical research designed to prevent or cure diseases. Jews and Genes explores this tension against the backdrop of various important developments in genetics and bioethics--new advances in stem cell research; genetic mapping, identity, testing, and intervention; and the role of religion and ethics in shaping public policy. Jews and Genes brings together leaders in their fields, from all walks of Judaism, to explore these most timely and intriguing topics--the intricacies of the genetic code and the wonders of life, along with cutting-edge science and the ethical issues it raises.

Etiology of Breast and Gynecological Cancers
Progress in Clinical and Biological Research, Volume 396 Etiology of Breast and Gynecological Cancers Proceedings of the Ninth International Conference on Carcinogenesis and Risk Assessment, Held in Austin, Texas, November 29–December 2, 1995 C. Marcelo Aldaz, Michael N. Gould, John McLachlan, and Thomas J. Slaga, Editors Accounting for 150 cancers per 100,000 people at risk, breast cancer and gynecological cancer together constitute a major public health concern. These cancers have a common target population, and many also have common etiological features, including hormonal factors, genetic changes in genes such as BRCA1, and environmental factors such as ionizing radiation, viruses, che...
